Page 9: Installation
EAVY OUNTERLINE NSTALLATION Installation must comply with National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1, Natural Gas Installation Code, CAN/CGA-B149.1, or the Propane Installation Code, CAN/CGA-B149.2, as applicable. These installation procedures must be followed by qualified personnel or warranty will be void. Local codes regarding installation vary greatly from one area to another.
Page 10 NSTALLATION Step 2a: Installation on Countertop Legs To install the appliance using countertop legs, do the following: 1. Locate the box of four legs shipped with the appliance (if countertop legs were ordered). 2. Raise the appliance about 6" so that the legs can be screwed into the bottom near the corners. Lift the appliance only from the ends, never from the middle! Support the lifted appliance so that it will not fall while you are attaching the legs.
Page 11 EAVY OUNTERLINE Step 2b: Installation Directly on a Non-Combustible Countertop Surface The appliance may be installed directly onto a flat NON-COMBUSTIBLE surface, as follows: 1. Place the appliance in the position that it will be used. Lift the appliance only from the ends, never from the middle! 2.
Page 12 NSTALLATION Step 2c: Installation on Insulated Base The appliance may be installed onto a flat NON-COMBUSTIBLE (but heat sensitive) surface using the optional insulated base, as follows: 1. Attach the side pieces of the insulated base (items “A” in Figure 7 below) to the front piece (item “B”) using the four sheet metal screws provided.
Page 13 EAVY OUNTERLINE Step 2d: Installation on Floor Stand (24", 36", and 48" Models) The 24", 36", and 48" appliances may be installed on top of an optional floor stand (for 60" and 72" griddles, go to Step 2e on page 15). The floor stand is shipped in a separate crate and must be assembled, as follows: 1.
Page 14 NSTALLATION Figure 9 7. Check the partially assembled stand to make sure that the legs are straight and that all corners are square. Now tighten all bolts, but do not over tighten. 8. If legs with casters were ordered, lift the stand and screw the caster assemblies into the bottom of the legs.
Page 15 EAVY OUNTERLINE Step 2e: Installation on Floor Stand (60" and 72" Models) A 60" or 72" griddle may be installed on top of an optional floor stand (for 24", 36", and 48" griddles, go to Step 2d on page 13). The floor stand is shipped in a separate crate and must be assembled, as follows: 1.

Step 7: Final Installation Steps for Griddle Models This step applies only to the installation of griddle models. New griddles should be carefully tempered and cared for in order to avoid possible damage.
Page 21: Operation
EAVY OUNTERLINE PERATION Purchaser of equipment must post in a prominent location, detailed instructions to be followed in the event the operator smells gas. Obtain the instructions from the local gas supplier. To eliminate gas build up which could result in an explosion, in the event of main burner ignition failure a five minute purge period must be observed prior to re-establishing ignition source.
Page 22 PERATION OPERATION OF THERMOSTATIC GRIDDLE MODELS Each 12"-wide griddle section has a thermostatic-control knob on the front panel that directly controls the flow of gas, and so the heat. Turn the knob clockwise to increase the heat; turn it counterclockwise to reduce the heat.
Page 23 EAVY OUNTERLINE OPERATION OF MANUAL GRIDDLE MODELS Each 12"-wide griddle section has a knob on the front panel that directly controls the flow of gas, and so the heat. Turn the knob clockwise to increase the heat; turn it counterclockwise to reduce the heat. After each period of use, allow the griddle surface to cool normally.
Page 24 PERATION OPERATION OF CHARBROILER MODELS Each 6"-wide charbroiler section has a knob on the front panel that directly controls the flow of gas, and so the heat. Turn the knob counterclockwise to increase the heat; turn it clockwise to reduce the heat. To use the charbroiler, turn all the control knobs to the full “ON”...
Page 25 EAVY OUNTERLINE OPERATION OF OPEN-TOP BURNER MODELS Each 12"-wide open-top burner section has two knobs on the front panel that directly control the flow of gas to the section’s two burners, and so control the heat. Turn a knob clockwise to increase the heat; turn it counterclockwise to reduce the heat.
Page 26: Cleaning
LEANING LEANING Southbend equipment is constructed with the best quality materials and is designed to provide durable service when properly maintained. To expect the best performance, your equipment must be maintained in good condition and cleaned daily. Naturally, the frequency and extent of cleaning depends on the amount and degree of usage.
Page 27 LEANING EAVY OUNTERLINE the metal. Rubbing cleanser, as gently as possible, in the direction of the polished lines will not mar the finish of the stainless steel. NEVER RUB WITH A CIRCULAR MOTION. Soil and burnt deposits which do not respond to the above procedure can usually be removed by rubbing the surface with SCOTCH-BRITE scouring pads or STAINLESS scouring pads.
Page 28: Adjustments
(A) Service work is performed by other than a qualified technician, or (B) Other than genuine Southbend replacement parts are installed. Before making any adjustment, make sure the appliance is connected to the type of gas for which it is equipped.
Page 29 EAVY OUNTERLINE ADJUSTMENT OF PILOT FLAME (GRIDDLE MODELS) The pilots are adjusted at the factory. If later the pilots are over-adjusted to the point where the flame is leaving its port, or “blowing off,” the result is an unstable condition in which the pilot may extinguish. If necessary, adjust each burner’s pilot using the following procedure: 1.
Page 30 (“NAT” or “LP”). Re-attach the hex-threaded plug. 6. Check the manifold pressure (the procedure is on page 28). Note: A kit for conversion to a different type of gas may be purchased from Southbend. EAVY ’...
Page 31 EAVY OUNTERLINE ADJUSTMENT OF GRIDDLE THERMOSTATS Each burner’s control knob operates a snap-action thermostatic valve that was adjusted at the factory. If the griddle surface temperature is different from the thermostat dial setting, adjust the valve using the following procedure: 1.
